The Bisons, led by first-year head coach Kevin Carroll, played their home games at the Allen Arena in Nashville, Tennessee as members of the Atlantic Sun Conference.
Previous season The Bisons finished the 2024–25 season 25–10, 14–4 in ASUN play, to finish as ASUN regular season champions. They defeated Central Arkansas, Queens, and North Alabama to win the ASUN tournament championship, sending the Bisons to just their second ever NCAA tournament appearance, and their first since 2018.
